Folded steel Bench in the manner of Maria Pergay

About the Item

High quality folded steel bench in the manner of the iconic Marie Pergay 'wave' bench. This beautiful piece can be left as it is or have an upholstered seat fitted. This is a very close replica of the iconic Pergay bench, only differing in the detail to the feet. It makes a fabulous design statement, perfect at the bottom of the bed or under a window. Maria Pergay is a Romanian-born French designer best known for her unique use of stainless steel in producing tables, belt buckles, decorative artifacts, chairs, and daybeds. Pergay’s pieces often feature organic shapes such as waves, rings, and shells. Born in 1930 in Moldova, Romania to Russian-Jewish parents, Pergay and her mother fled to France at the beginning of World War II. After the war, Pergay studied costumery, set design, and sculpture at the Institut des Hautes Études Cinématographiques in Paris, before opening her own shop to sell decorative silver objects. It wasn’t until the late 1960s that she began using stainless steel. Pergay livesn and works in Paris, France. Today, her works are held in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
